“5-PATH hypnosis and 7th Path Self-Hypnosis is NOT basic hypnosis training. This class gives you the tools and resources to begin a meaningful, professional career. The surprise is the “inner-work” done in class that clears the path to individual success. Cal Banyan’s passion for this work is evident in his teaching process. I would recommend this class to anyone interested in becoming a hypnosis professional.”Suzanne Gower, Milwaukee, WI

I would especially like to recognize and thank Maureen, Marianne and Abby and the IT staff who continuously made sure that I was able to participate in this course online for 2 weeks.

“I loved this course. It was a wonderful experience. It’s a step by step program and produces outstanding results. I agree to this being the best of the best. If you watch Cal in action, you will be simply amazed. If you are interested in becoming a hypnotist/hypnotherapist, this is definitely the place to be.”Lori Barkhouse, RN, Antigonish, Nova Scotia, CANADA

“I have been studying hypnosis for 5 years. In that time, the majority of hypnosis information teaches progressive relaxation. That is not what Cal Banyan’s course is about. His methods are about efficiency: Get the client in hypnosis, work toward resolution of the problem and bring them out of hypnosis. His knowledge, dedication and passion to help people are easy to see and an inspiration to keep improving. There is no greater satisfaction for the hypnotist nor the client than to obtain results and truly help.”William Barnett, Fort Worth, TX

“Cal is amazing, his training is amazing. This training is intense and transformative. In my opinion, this is the best hypnosis/hypnotherapy training in the country.”John Wylie, CH, Boise, ID

“I am so glad I came to this class. The BEST INVESTMENT in Hypnosis knowledge, so far.

Great teacher and best facility, I wish I knew about you 3 years ago. I am 100% more confident in my skills and knowledge to teach others. I will come back to repeat again next year.”Andy Kasemvudhi, CH, CI, San Diego, CA.

“When you come for this course, bring your “A team” because Cal is so dedicated to giving you what you need to be successful, that you will need several days afterward to get back to normal.”J. Frederick Christensen, CH, Kanab, UT

“This class was beyond my greatest expectations! 7th Path alone was worth taking the class and priceless. 7th Path in an of itself has been life changing and transformative for me just this week. The content of the material of the class as a whole was so thorough and definitely makes for a confident hypnotist! Take this class! You will not be disappointed!”Brandy Clemons, P.T. CH, LC, Scottsboro, AL

“I’ve been certified in 5-PATH by DVD training for 8 months. This week I participated in the Week of Power Live Online to receive my 7th Path teacher certification and learn additional tips and tricks from the live training. Cal’s staff made the live online experience seamless. It was just as great as being in an actual classroom right down to the mentored practice times. If you want to be an effective and efficient hypnotist who gets real, lasting results, 5-PATH and the Week of Power are for you!”Penny Chiasson, CRNA, BCH, Portland, CT

“This course is extremely powerful. The curriculum is demanding and challenging. Banyan is unmatched in his level of professionalism and expertise. This is the absolute gold standard in hypnosis training and resources. The Banyan training has been the most rewarding experience in my professional life. Banyan’s modalities and original and cutting edge training are literally transformational!”Jon Barber, BA, Tustin, CA.

“This course was all Cal said it would be and way more! I would highly recommend integrating both his 5-PATH and 7th Path Self Hypnosis together for people looking for transformative changes, as well as for people interested in a hypnosis career. Cal Banyan’s 5-PATH system is a simple and complete approach to almost all problems.”Chris Hildebrand, Seattle,WA

“I was hungry to learn, so I decided to eat out at the Banyan Hypnosis Center. I expected to be seated and given a menu of historical perspectives on the field of hypnosis and a “platter” of direct suggestions from which I would serve future clients a la carte. Instead, I was presented a seven course, well-executed and seasoned meal. The meat and potatoes, 5-PATH. The sixth course, the rapport of lifelong friends and future colleagues. Bonus 7th course…dessert…7th Path!”Diana Giardina, Rancho Belago, CA

“This course was a life changer! I am so glad I took the course. Cal and Maureen are wonderful. I learned so much about being a hypnotist and myself, I will be sending people your way.”Meadow Faith, Laguna Beach, CA

“Wow!! My mind has been blown! Cal does not waste one minute in this 2 week class. Well worth the investment in myself. Thank you, Banyan Hypnosis Center!”Danny Vollmar, Wildomar, CA

“Cal was very thorough, dedicated and comprehensive in making sure everyone in the class understands the flow and important aspects of the certification course. Despite the long distance apart and attending this program online, it did not deter or discount my learning experience at all. On the contrary, it allows me to understand his work even better as we now need to teach these to new students. This program definitely gave me confidence and aspiration in taking my passion in hypnotherapy work to the next level!”Tracy Tan - Singapore

“I thought this was a great class and a “must take”, for all CPHI’s or aspiring CPHI’s. I have a lot of experience as a hypnotist and as a teacher but not as a hypnotist trainer. Cal gave us the depth of understanding I needed to feel more confident and capable of providing my students a solid training so they too can become competent and confident hypnotists. His showed me how to enhance their curiosity and understanding and provide them with the skills and techniques they need to be successful.”Laney Coulter – Portland, Oregon

“I’m so glad I took this training. I feel like I just got the inside “tips, tricks and techniques” of the “tips, tricks and techniques” that I learned in the 5-PATH Certification Course. I feel really excited about taking the 5-PATH/7th Path Teaching to Latin America. After the 5-PATH Certification Course that I received in 2008, I felt totally ready to start my career in Hypnotherapy, and after this CPHI Training, I feel totally ready to start training 5-PATHers.”Luis Lopez - Guatemala

“As with all trainings that I attended with Cal Banyan, he is an awesome trainer! Cal is a wealth of information that is so valuable and extremely empowering in many ways.

The CPHI class has given me a level of confidence that will enhance my business and be beneficial for my clients, as it has taken my initial Advanced certification to a whole new level of knowledge.

I look forward to continued growth in the land of 5 and 7th Path and the Banyan Hypnosis Center.

PS: Marianne (technician) was great to work with. She took a lot of time to ensure that we were all comfortable with the live online setup and successfully kept us all connected throughout the class time. Her patience is one to be commended.

Thank you, Maureen, for always being there to answer questions and explain all the paperwork and requirements.

The Banyan team is A+++ (and more so)”Marcella Hilferty – Easton, Pennsylvania

“As a current Banyan CPHI, I signed up with this training as a refresher as I did mine 7 years ago. The 3 days was not a refresher because it was nothing like the CPHI training I did, tagging along as an observer in the 10-day program. The scope and depth that was given to why some things are taught the way it is offer a perspective which will no doubt impact my future training. Not only do I get the updated on the latest development in the 5-PATH and 7th Path world, I know that my training will be aligned with the current best practice in the industry. Cal kept dropping gems after gems that I can’t wait to review the sessions again to see what i have missed out. Technical support was excellent. The platform used for Video Call was easy to navigate and intuitive to use. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience! Thanks!”Pete Tan - Singapore

“This class provided an even deeper level of understanding of 5-PATH and 7th Path Self-Hypnosis and how to teach it to students. Cal Banyan expertly balances the analytical component of the training with thoughtful real-world experience and the result is a perfect combination of the why and how 5-PATH and 7th Path work together to create such a successful system for our students and clients. I love that 5-PATH includes this type of training for instructors - it was the next logical step for me in my career development. I'm really happy I took this class.”Erika Flint – Bellingham, Washington

“This class has helped me to understand 5-PATH h and 7th Path, much deeper than before. It was also important for me to meet Cal Banyan because he is the founder of this concept. He seems to be a nice guy, and he also did a great job in the 3 Day course. I am wiser now than before the course. Thank you for letting me participate. I hope I can come and visit Cal soon”Danendra Danapala - Denmark

“I am an aspiring CPHI and signed up for the class, unsure if I was able to handle doing this (1) online (never done it before) (2) from 1am my time for 3 consecutive days (crossing my fingers that I would not wake my neighbors!) and (3) continuing on with my day to day (no sleep!). I am glad that I did, best decision I have ever made and Cal Banyan is the best trainer I have ever had.

The certification is for becoming an instructor, how to teach and why and Cal was completely on point with this. The class was a good mix of “on the way to”, “almost there” and “already there” CPHIs and even though we were all online, Cal has a knack of plugging in to exactly where you are right now and what you need to work on, individually, as if he is teaching you exclusively. Cal ensures that I have a good understanding and I can feel that he genuinely cares that I do, so I can be a good instructor and hypnotist. Cal imparts not only the “how to”, the “when and where” but also the “why” in a methodical approach that you will gain the knowledge, principles and benefits (even if you zone out for a little bit, didn’t I already say that he is the best trainer ever?)

A lot was covered during the 3 days and never a minute wasted on anything unbeneficial. This course paves my way towards being confident and competent in teaching. And I got a whole lot more out of it - it also definitely improves me to being a better hypnotherapist.

Shout-outs to Maureen for the exemplary administrative efficiency we should adopt as professionals and Marianne for making sure we can hear and be heard throughout the entire class.”Hamidah Hashim - Singapore

“The Ultimates 1-5 was quantum leaps from the original Recognitions. Not only was this investment the best investment I could do for me professionally, it has also enhanced my skills to professionally help others.

I addition to the above, I experienced major shifts in my life in these 2 days that I’ve spent a life time (at least 40 years) going to many doctors, therapists, etc. without long term success. I’m looking forward for the next 5 months to continue working the first five Ultimates and shifting more. Without setting expectations, I can only imagine what 5 months will be like.

“This course delivered way beyond what was expected. When I first took the course in learning the 7th Path system, I was very excited as I come from a very spiritual, metaphysical background and am always looking for ways to come closer to my higher power. This course blew my mind, not only in personal transformations and insights from my core – a true understanding that love is eternal and that connecting to my higher power is simple and I was overcomplicating things. The joy, euphoria and feelings I experienced were like none I remember – far deeper and longer lasting than with other spiritual activities and events I have been through. There is an overwhelming sense of gratitude and desire to further this teaching in my hypnosis practice and beyond. I can’t wait to take the Ultimate 9th Degree course!!”Kelly Cohee, MS, CH, Trabuco Canyon, CA

“Cal as always is amazing. So very thankful and grateful I was given this opportunity to progress down this path. Since attending this “Ultimates” class, I am more certain in the difference in how I feel and where I am on the path of life. For those of you who are 7th Pathers, this IS the next step in your evolution, more amazing than the first 9 Recognitions. It’s a flow of energy you can physically feel, with each Ultimate, so much more. It is the life path, that is spiritually uplifting. I am in anticipation, looking forward to more sensations, emotions and directions resulting from my “Ultimates” practice & experience. Can’t wait for Ultimates 6 through 9!”David Monahan, CH, Hawaii

“I researched long and hard to find the best trainer in the world of hypnosis and advanced hypnosis, Cal was the one I kept coming back to again and again. What I got from the training was way beyond what I expected from the beginning. 7th Path was the biggest pleasant surprise. I have more than enough to bring back and turbo-charge my practice.”John Phillips, Salt Lake City, UT

“I love, love, love Cal and his certified hypnosis training course. I came with absolutely no experience in hypnosis and only the knowledge of Cal’s podcasts (Secret Language of Feelings) and videos and am blown away by the knowledge and experience I’ve gained in these 10 days. I came a hypno seeker and I’m leaving a Hypno Professional. I can’t thank Cal enough for the confidence I’ve gained and the skills I now have to actually change lives. I know I’m now on my True Path!”Venice Brown, Atlanta, GA

“I chose this course to become a Certified Hypnotherapist from Cal Banyan and I got so much more than I could have imagined. I received a life changing experience I wasn’t expecting. Love the course, love the staff and the facility. They under promise and over deliver! Thank you!”Wendy Knight, Tustin, CA

“I have learned more in the last 2 weeks about the human subconscious and how it drives daily behaviors than I have over the last 10 years. Hypnosis allows for REAL change.

“This course was taught in a very professional manner. I learned that the 5-PATH and 7th Path programs are extremely powerful. I am proud to be a graduate of the Banyan Hypnosis Super Certification program. There is no doubt in my mind that the Instructor – Cal Banyan, is an outstanding instructor, second to none. He is highly skilled in the subject, extremely professional and dedicated. His staff are also very professional, outstanding and very dedicated.”Mike G. Trevino, Houston, TX

“This course is the most powerful course for transformation. It’s logical, combining science with inner power. It’s the secret for a healthy, successful, peaceful life that everyone wishes for. Knowing the key of all our problems in life is by communicating with our subconscious mind and makes peace with the conscious mind, then you can feel and manifest it in your life through your unconscious mind. It’s amazing!”Nefa Aljebrin, London, Ontario, Canada

“Going through it the second time was awesome! It is like watching a movie for the second time. I picked up everything I missed the first time, as there is so much information to absorb. Cal really wants his students to succeed, and it shows in his style of teaching.”Carolyn Willis, Huntington Beach, CA.

“I found this course really informative; I learned more about emotions, human beings and myself in these two weeks than I did in 6 years of University. Thank you very much for giving Off-site students like myself, the opportunity to become a part of all of this and become a 5-PATHer.”Sydia Vanjo, Psychologist, Guatemala - "Attended Course Live Online"

“I started this course, looking to become a Hypnotist and by the end of the course, I was amazed at everything I got out of the class besides knowledge. I also received personal growth and a tremendous amount of fun listening to Cal, Maureen, Brenda and Kelly. Thank you all.”Scot Fensterle, Vernon Hills, IL. - "Attended Course Live Online"

“I learned so much – so much that I realized I was missing too much in my practice prior!

“Cal Banyan’s Age Regression Certification course was complete and fulfilling. Unlike some training courses, this one delved deep into the fundamentals of feelings, explaining the flow of perception, consciousness and behavior. Cal used numerous anecdotes to illustrate principles and incorporated vivid metaphors to make sure students understood the concepts. He took the time to answer questions thoughtfully and completely and provided adequate opportunities to practice new skills. This course is a must for any hypnotist wishing to improve her practice. Thank you!”Cecilia Anderson, CH, Washington, DC

“This is a show-stopper course! The information is infinitely useful. The experiential methodology was highly effective.

This process has been very transformational as I have gained confidence, knowledge and insight into how the mind works and how powerful and rejuvenating connection to one’s higher power can move one’s path forward at amazing speed. I have come out of this experience with a renewed sense of self and an empowered inner drive to assist others in the process of realizing their greatest potential and living the life they were meant to live. I am infinitely grateful!!”Kelly Cohee, MS., CAM, Coto de Caza, CA

“The NGH Hypnotherapy Certification course was a great class! Very organized and well structured. Cal really knows his stuff and I couldn’t imagine learning from anyone else who could give the quality education that he did. I feel I can walk away from this class and have the foundation to create a thriving practice. 5-PATH and 7th Path works and every step makes perfect sense. I recommend anyone interested in learning how to do hypnosis, take Cal’s class. It’s worth it!”Vanessa Wada, MS., KD, Fullerton, CA

“This will help take your life to a new exciting path!”Ronald Schoenenberger, Dwight, IL.

“This class was a very transformative experience. I didn’t expect that so much time will be devoted to personal transformation. I didn’t expect 7th Path to be taught at all, so that’s very cool!

As for 5-PATH, it was very great as well, the only course that has such logic and transparent structure that works well. Practice was helpful in building more confidence.”Stepan Kolyukayev, BA, Moscow, Russia

“This course is awesome! Cal Banyan teaches his incredible 5-PATH and 7th Path techniques, and as students, we get to experience that change first hand!

This class from Cal is effective and it surprised me on how quick the healing and positive changes occur. It surpassed my expectation!”Amy Lam, MA. Santa Ana, CA.

“This is THE class for Hypnosis training! I was expecting the best training available and this course delivered tenfold. I enjoyed the class so much the first time I came back for a refresher.

“Thank you. This was a wonderful experience. So much information to absorb! I hope I am able to precent to my students as clearly and comprehensively and with as much patience as you…well, at least nearly as well! Also, I want to mention how much I appreciate the sensitivity and caring that you exhibit toward your students. You are an inspiration to me.”Laney Coulter, BCH, CPHI, M.Ed., Portland, OR

“This course was truly transforming for me. The method of doing hypnosis via 5-PATH and 7th Path, met more than I even expected. At the end of the 2nd week, I personally moved through hidden aspects of myself that freed me from 15+ years of pain that was thought to be a lifelong curse. I now know that through the process of 5-PATH and 7th Path, life can be given back to the person searching, CONTROL!

Cal Banyan is an amazing instructor. You can feel, sense and experience his passion of this process as well as witness his compassion towards his clients.”Marcella Hilferty, BS, MBA, Easton, PA - "Attended Course Live Online"

&lqduo;- I believe this is class is the best hypnosis training available.

- Cal is very passionate and real.

- Cal makes me want to be the best hypnotist and instructor I can be..

- The information in this class is enough to not only start a hypnosis practice, but thrive.

- Supporting material and products are great – BOLSM, Business Start Up 2.1 and The Secret Language of Feelings book.

- I had taken the DVD version of this class which was great, but realistically, there is so much information in this class you can take it over and over and always get something new out of it. I have a deeper understanding of the material now, and am so happy I took the class again.

- Taking the class remotely was such a great option for me. I got all the benefits of being in the live class, but without having to travel or be away from my family. The Banyan Hypnosis Center uses the latest technology and made it easy for me to feel like I was actually there in the room with everyone else - even though I was thousands of miles away&rqduo;Erika Flint, CH, Bellingham, Washington - "Attended Course Live Online"
